“When I was young I asked more of people than they could give: everlasting friendship, endless feeling.
Now I know to ask less of them than they can give: a straightforward companionship.
And their feelings, their friendship, their generous actions seem in my eyes to be wholly miraculous: a consequence of grace alone.”
Albert Camus
Kehte hain ki....
"Sacche usulo pe zindagi jeena itna aasaan nahi hota,
Aur bina sangharsh ke koi maan nahi hota,
Jab tak na pade patthar pe hatode ki choth,
Tab tak patthar bhi bhagwan nahi hota"
Jab tak na pade dil ko choth koi kisi ke kaam nahi aata...koi kisi ke saath nahi aata.
No matter when we are happy or sad, we count on people to share our emotions. Whether its making us feel light hearted or feeding our ego, we indulge in it consciously inspite of knowing that we have come into the world alone and have to leave the world alone. Life goes on...the show must go on.
Just like Jagjit Singh says...
Shehad jeene ka mila kar thoda thoda
Jaanewaalon ke liyein dil nahin tohda karte...
Sometimes, you walk down the memory lane, not just to remember, but, to relive fond memories. These memories that you have taken hours of nothingness to build, rejuvenate your soul. No matter what part of the world your in and which corner of the room you sit in, you think of these times and chuckle. Humor surrounds you. Under the burning flame of a candle, you sit on the warm carpet and hear the soothing sounds of the rain drops while sipping a cup of tea.
Sharing is always the most difficult part of a being. You need understanding people around you to give your heart the freedom to fully open itself. With friends like mine I tend to always have things to share sometimes even without words. Its a God gifted thing or even a "under development" channel which we seek within people. Not everyone comes with a willingness to develop this sort of channel with people, you have to filter out the ones that do. Thats why good friends tend to have compatible characteristics.
They say that separation never greets good friends, how do you know? Life surprises you every minute. Is it really a constant hide and seek process?
We continue our lives in the search of hidden souvenirs...
